PICS: ESSENCE Black Women In Hollywood Luncheon

Sandra Rose February 19, 2009

Halle Berry was drop-dead gorgeous at the 2nd Annual ESSENCE Black Women In Hollywood Luncheon held at the Beverly Hills hotel today. She matched her figure hugging gold and silver strapless gown with a pair of gold Christian Louboutin peep toe platform pumps and a gold snakeskin clutch. Perfection!

Mo’Nique. Yes her legs are hairy, get over it!

WHAT is taraji doing with her makeup??? it looks like she is wearing a mask!

Halle, Eva, Kerri — flawless!

Dang who WASN’T there. Everyone looks nice for the most . Tatyana Ali’s dress is not flattering for her nice shape

Some hits and some misses. My version of the fashion police.

First of all Halle SHUT IT DOWN!!! Go on girl! Flawless
Kerry is also killin it! This chit is always on point.

-Taraji looks nice but her makeup seems too light for her face. Her mom is cute too.

Meagan, LisaRaye, and Eva fall into nice. Not great but not bad.

-Monique, Lauren, Tia are o.k. Monique’s makeup is usually on point but her face looks plain there. Lauren just looks blah. I like Tia’s attire but then I don’t so she’s nice/o.k IMO

I don’t care for anyone else’s looks. Viv looks like she tried hard but it does nothing for me. Pam’s suit looks like a business suit IMO but I like her shoes.

Was Tyrese the only male there?

Sandra what’s up with the rhianna pics that were released? Damn, Chirs Brown career is over.
Shauny

FYI – TMZ has a Rhianna photo of her taken after the “situation”. It looks like the real thing.

Sandra, please I hope you don’t post that picture of Rihanna… it’s really not necessary.

I think I’m going to start a love/hate relationship with Halle Berry’s body… damn a baby a year ago and over 40 and still putting women half her age to shame… HATE/LOVE her.

Tia Mowry and Tatyana both need stylists who like them.
Lauren “i only love thugs” London looks foolish esp with that white purse.
Lisa Raye looks like she didnt get a memo on the dress code.
Kerry needs those last 5lbs back, she’d getting the big head syndrome.
Taraji’s momma looks great, black don’t crack!

All the ladies look stunning!! Halle and Kerry is killing it! Pictures like this make me glad I joined the gym today: It’s time to get back “Freshman Fine”. LMAO
Shauny

Kara, does it look real to you? She looks so hurt emotionally so unless it’s a really good photoshop I think it’s real.
Shauny

@cutiechica
I joined a gym too, I have to get back to working it out.
cutiechica

@Shauny, then we need to keep each encourage on those days when we just don’t want to.

**************************************************************

It’s real. Her features looks distorted (nose looks big) because the cop was too close to her face. He should have stood back.

Am I the only glad to see that Lisa Ray chose to wear something other than the color white? I like color on her, she looks nice.
Shauny

@cutiechica,
That works for me. I can use all the help I can get. Trying to get down to a 6 by my b-day. I’ll be looking out for you to check up on you.

Sandra, dang I was almost wishing it wasn’t real. Why TMZ gotta put it out there right before her 21st.

I can’t wait to see all of the “reasoning” with what he did now since now we have the “actual” proof of her injuries. So sad.
KaraZ

Shauny, you know some people (mostly women) will come here and say some mess to blame her for this.

My Gawd… Halle shut that ish DOWN! Making the young girls look pitiful. Lord….
leat

Everyone looks lovely, Halle is killen them youngins. Angela Bassett wasnt there, she wouldve shut that ish down majorly!
Daisy

Lisa Raye w/o a white dress on say it aint so.

I don’t think Angela went since Halle called her out (rightfully so) in Essence..lol
licia

every looks nice , but you did the right thing by putting halle first . halle’s dress is off the chain and she’s gorgeous no doubt. .

i agree about monique’s legs. i been over it and i have seen worst( believe me ) . got to be a reason why she doesn’t feel like she needs to shave them , but it’s not me so i won’t lose sleep over it and neither should anyone else.
lnp03

Everyone looks so fabulous! I love all of the pictures except for Monique’s hairy legs. She needs to wax that off!
Toi

This is the most clothes I have ever seen on Megan. She actually looks decent for a change.
MIZZ.I_REP_ATL

Meagon looking like she doesn’t even like her own getup, and I don’t either. Others who didn’t look up to part, Vivica, Lauren, LisaRaye (Just the dress), Tytiana and Mo’Nique (the hairy legs did it).
ReadTheBlog

Is it me or does Meagan Good look really bad in the face, as of late? It’s like she’s on drugs or some other downward spiral…

Everyone looks great, ‘cept Eva. I can’t get passed her being a b*tch on ANTM. And Lisaraye does look like she’s trying really hard to fit in, bless her ministries, Lord! LOL!

Sandra, you have a foot fetish, don’t you?
Daisy

@Read she was not a B on top model. I loved her on that show.
